JULY 2010 ISRAEL NEWS REVIEW |

Monday, July 26, 2010

Click for my latest Israel news and analysis report. It focuses this month on continuing efforts by pro-Hamas activists to break Israel’s naval blockade of the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip. All of this is coming against the backdrop of a possible regional military clash sometime in the coming weeks or months, as Hizbullah militia forces are significantly beefed up in southern Lebanon, Syria’s leader again speaks of war, and US naval vessels gather in the Persian Gulf off the coast of Iran. Large numbers of IDF military personnel and equipment have been positioned along the Golan Heights border with Syria and near the Lebanese border, as I witnessed with my own eyes when visiting those areas with my tour group last month. Despite this, Israeli government officials say tourism has been flourishing this year, breaking all previous records so far, including for the month of June when nearly 250,000 visitors came to the Promised Land.- Click here for the full story |

Friday, May 28, 2010
• Jerusalem |

Click for my latest monthly Israel news update. As the headline declares, it mainly deals with the prospects for war in the Middle East this summer. It has become fairy clear that Iran is working overtime to ratchet up tensions in the region in an apparent attempt to engulf Israeli military forces in local armed conflicts, with the goal being to deflect a possible IDF strike on its rogue nuclear program. While Israeli government and military leaders are preparing for any possibility, as detailed in the report, it seems that they are also doing all that they can to thwart Iran’s nefarious designs. - Click here for the full story |
